I am thankful for my sweet husband, my little boy I'll meet around October 24, lots of energy lately, very mild pregnancy irritations at this point, and being able to cook some good meals lately!
Most of all though I am thankful to my Lord Jesus Christ for my salvation through faith and trust in Him! God has been so good to me, helping me grow in love and patience. I am so appreciative He is answering my prayers to help me not worry about finances once the baby comes. He knows our needs and it will work out!
I'm thankful that it is acceptable for me not to wear pant while I'm at home...pants are not my friend lately!
I'm thankful that my sweet husband has our pool up and running again. We got a bad case of algae while out of town last week and he worked on it all day yesterday before his night shift. I woke up this morning and it looks INCREDIBLE! So proud of him!!
@Sballerina Isn't it incredible how you feel Christ during pregnancy!? My cousin and I were recently in awe of that, there's just a enveloping peace that's wonderful. Thanks for sharing
I'm thankful for my super sweet and caring husband! He has been an absolute gem the entire pregnancy. He has to leave very early for work, before my alarm goes off, so I'm always asleep when he leaves. Every morning before he leaves, he kisses me on the cheek and says that he loves me, and then he kisses my stomach and says, "Bye, son. Daddy loves you!" The only reason I know this, is because there have been a few times that I'm half-awake when he's done this. It melts my heart! He's the best. I couldn't ask for a better person to my husband and the father of our child and our future children.
O'15 September Siggy Challenge -- Third Trimester Woes
Thankful Thursday is great. I don't usually have an UO to share. I said DH last time so I will branch out today. I'm thankful for my mom! She is very patient with me even when we don't agree on the same things and I love how excited she is for this baby. She took me out shopping yesterday for some much needed maternity clothes. I'm not very big yet so I kept putting it off. I didn't realize just how uncomfortable I have been. They are amazing.
Also I am seriously thankful for Air Conditioning, it's so hot this week I think I would be dying without it.
Thankful for my husband. He's the sole provider and works so hard to support us. He has been my rock, especially over the past few weeks. Melt downs over the number on the scale lately leads to a heart to heart and him telling me how beautiful I am and how happy he is. I can't begin to rave enough on how wonderful he is. He's my best friend and I am one lucky lady to have his hand to hold in life.
I am Thankful that I have this great group of support! I'm thankful that my husband helped clean out the room that is the nursery and last night he shampooed the carpet. Now we have to move the crib, bookshelf, and dresser in! I'm going to put up some art and finish decorating. Also, I'm thankful that my best friend always listens and then makes me laugh when I am being hormonal. We have only been friends for 3 years, and I feel like I've known her for 20 years.
I am thankful that my job is very flexible over the summer. It has been a nice, relaxing break from he hectic school year.
I am also thankful for my sister. She lives less than a mile from me and I love that our relationship is so strong. With her already having two kids she has been a great support throughout my pregnancy and the best sounding board there is.
I'm thankful for my four year old and our cuddle sessions. I'm thankful the Lord heard our prayers and is blessing us with another family member to love unconditionally. I'm thankful for my husband who try's his hardest to understand what emotional and physical changes I've been going through and will continue to go through. I'm thankful for his acceptance that our house isn't always the cleanest and that I hate to cook so he does what he can to pick up my slack, even after working a physically demanding job all day.
I'm thankful that we spent the money to install central air in our home last year. It's 95 degrees here and miserable. I know those window units wouldn't cut it on days like today.
I'm beyond thankful for my sweet husband and even sweeter faced little 3.5 year old boy. I'm even thankful for the afternoon off I had the other day because that little boy decided to shove a Lego piece up his nose because his Lego guy was picking his nose for him. I'm thankful for the bouncy little girl in my belly and looking so forward to holding her for the first time and watching my babies grow and my husband and I grow together as parents.
I'm thankful to be pregnant. I know that it doesn't happen as easy as it did for me for everyone. Sure my feet hurt and I can't fit into any of my regular clothes but at least there is a good reason why. And all of the past few months will be forgotten in October.
I'm thankful dh got the call today that he got the job he interviewed for yesterday!!! What a huge blessing that we won't have to put him and dd1 on my insurance alone (we'll both be working for the school district so we can do half family and pay about $200 a month for them verses the $960 it was going to cost!)
I'm thankful for my incredible husband, step father and a friend who gave up their time off and spent their week renovating a room in our house which will eventually be the nursery. One even drove over 6 hours to be here to help!
I'm also thankful for a positive report from my OB today, and being told my high risk pregnancy is now considered low risk.
I'm thankful that I can still be active. I know many moms who have had to cut activity early in pregnancy, and it makes me feel even more grateful that I'm still on track with mine. It makes a huge difference in my mood!!
I am thankful for this baby and my wonderful husband! I am also thankful that my wonderful husband got to feel baby move for the first time last night. He was laying his head on my stomach asking the baby if it was a boy or girl and then baby kicked him right on the chin. His face was priceless!
Although I gripe about the outward appearance of my body and worry about the aftermath of pregnancy I am actually extremely grateful for the body I have. I'm so very thankful my body has been able to carry and birth my beautiful children without any complications, has allowed me to breastfeed successfully and has been kind to me over the years even when I haven't always been so kind to it.
I'm also thankful for my husband who supports in every way and is truly my best friend in life and my two boys who shower me with kisses, I love you's and tell me everyday how beautiful I am even when I don't feel it.
I am thankful that our air conditioning is fixed after 5 days of being out, and especially thankful for my handy husband who knew which part broke and how to fix so we didn't have to spent tons on an AC repair person.
I'm so thankful that my son appears to be perfectly healthy. My husband was born with a syndrome that causes cell overgrowth, tumors, and deformity. He is 1 of 200 recorded cases worldwide in the history of medicine with this condition, and the only one to have it localized to one extremity. Doctors said that his children may not be so lucky--that they could be so deformed, they wouldn't make it to term.
So his syndrome coupled with my PCOS and endometriosis and 5 years without conceiving, I began to accept that children weren't possible--until January. We both were prepared for something to be wrong at the anatomy scan, but our little boy was perfect! The tech said if anything was out of the ordinary, we would be directed to a specialist immediately, and we weren't! We haven't even gotten a call from our OB. I can't believe how incredibly lucky we are to be blessed with this baby.
I'm thankful that even though I can not shave my sweet sweet husband will do it no hesitation hahaha my legs haha and anything else I can't reach :x I'm thankfull my baby boy is nice and healthy and growing and my husband is being as supportive as he can :x
I'm thankful I can feel my baby move a little bit now despite my anterior placenta. Thankful to have made it this far in my pregnancy. Thankful for a clean room ( it was not pretty before) and thankful for my little brother to entertain me all summer.
Although I cannot stand my job, I'm thankful that it's a job that I can sit all day and eat. I pretty much sit all day and smile at people while emailing mostly. I'm so grateful to not be doing retail anymore (7 years and I'm so done!) and grateful to have as little communication with people as possible (Some days I feel extra cranky and would hate to ever let anyone at work see me like that lol)
I am super thankful that my DH has taken it upon himself to do the house cleaning today. I was planning on doing the bathrooms and upstairs before heading to an out of town wedding, but DH said nope, he was going to tackle it. I know it won't be exactly as sparkling clean as I would want it, but I am so thankful he will get the heavy lifting done. (I will sparkelfy it when I get home... )
Mama to a wonderful DD - Sep 2015, Wife to my DH since 2011, 2 dogs, a cat, and hoping to add No. 2 in May/June 2018. Canadian. 5 - IUIs, 3 - IVF retrievals, 2- failed transfers (fresh, and frozen), PGS on second IVF resulted in 1 perfect emby, and DD. 3rd IVF w PGS resulted in 3! perfect embys. 1st transfer - Sep 2017 2 more on ice.
Yay for positivity! I'm thankful for my wonderful supportive family, the fact that I can financially provide for my son so much more than he needs (ftm and he's spoiled already in the womb) and for my body responding so well to being pregnant. Aside from mild symptoms, it's been a breeze. I know each pregnancy is different but now having 5 kids doesn't seem so scary
